I am supposed to compete in my first performance rally this coming Saturday (Galway).  Unfortunately it turns out the helmet my co-driver ordered won’t arrive on time despite the fact it was ordered three weeks ago.  He’s tried 15 places in the U.S. to no avail.  

We have not given up our search but we figured we should have a backup plan should a helmet not be found in the Ottawa or Montreal area.

There are two ways one could help us out.

1.If somebody had a XXL helmet (size 8 hat size) they could lend us it would be well taken care of and greatly appreciated?  

2. Is someone that would be available and willing to act as a stand-in co-driver on stand-by should he not find a helmet?   We would likely know by the end of Tuesday.  Car is a  81 VW.   I’ll be taking it easy as it will be my first time.      

If you can help in one way or another, or have any other suggestions, please email longhairedleapinknown at hotmail.

Thanks

Anthony,

Get your co-driver to cancel his order and buy a helmet from a Canadian distributor. You still have time to get a helmet for him.

Call me (819)682-4955 or home (819)827-4323.

Thank you for the suggestions.  He did go to a retailer in the Toronto area for his helmet.  Unfortunately because of sizing they did not have it in stock and it had to be special ordered - this is when the nail biting began...

Hi Anthony,

I just got off the phone with CSC racing. They have a few models of Bell SA 2005 helmets. They have them in larger sizes. Their sizes are measured differently than L, XL, XXL, etc. But they have the equivalent.
